From the Prez:

June temperatures might get hot, but not hotter than the tournament we had a Grapevine this month. 81 people fished this tournament and 65 of them had 3 fish limits. Wow!!! Out of all of those limits, none were bigger than the sack that Daniel Kammerdiener found.  He weighed in his limit of 7.12 lbs.  Maybe we should auction off that horse's patoot trophy instead?  It seems to be a lucky charm for winning tournaments!  The top three were separated by 0.11 lbs with Joe Toone in second (7.08 lbs.) and Jay Rackel in third (7.01 lbs.). This was one of the closest we have had in a while. Great job to the top three and the entire club on a good day of fishing.  Also, Eddie Jones found the biggest bass with his chunk of 4.91 lbs.  Great job!

Just a reminder for the points standing for the year.  We give awards to the angler of the year, top six, heavy stringer, big fish, and ladies angler of the year, etc.  As of right now if you think that you might be out of it ... think again ... remember that we drop your worst tournament if you fish them all. This wrinkle in the point system will change the standings as they look on the web site.  Example: Right now if you look at the standings it has me in first place with Roger Malone in second. When you drop the worst tournament, Roger is in first with me trailing him by a couple of points. (Goes to show you Roger is tough to beat.) With that said ... keep fishing and weighing in fish and the standings could change.

The weigh in procedure that we implemented for the Grapevine tournament went really well.  Of the 211 fish weighed, we only had 3 dead fish.  Much better than what happened on Bridgeport.  I want to thank Tim Johnson and Elaine Barnes for doing a great job again. Also, I would like to specially thank Roger Malone and David Mulcahy for helping them out.

On an important note: The launch site/weigh in has changed for the Cedar Creek Tournament. The old site was Log Cabin and the new site is FISHERMAN'S WHARF. PLEASE PASS THE WORD. I hope that everyone has a great day fishing and stays safe. Remember kill switches and life jackets save lives.
